In fact jar file loading requires the same directory structure you describe, classloaders generally work on this principle and always have. Basic Java stuff.
Since putting the classes in a correct directory structure is my default behavior but I haven't gotten it to work, I think it is at least partially dependant on your JVM/Tomcat version or perhaps was a problem with Jetspeed that is now fixed. My comment was, Jar files always work, so I use them. -tk At 12:53 PM 6/14/2002 -0500, you wrote: >I use the WEB-INF/classes pretty extensively for developing.
